That doesn't happen anymore.

But this cardiologist told me, I actually see people with goiter now

But no one's looking for it because they don't think people get goiter anymore.

And so most of them just walk around with a lump in their neck until they find me, he said.

That's wild.

And then there are other things too, like the supplement that you're taking has glutathione in it.

Well, selenium is a mineral that helps you use glutathione to protect your thyroid gland from damage.

There are a number of trials that show that selenium lowers the autoimmune antibodies that occur in Hashimoto's thyroiditis, which is a type of autoimmune thyroid problem.

And the reason it does that is because it's helping glutathione protect the thyroid from damage because producing thyroid is a very messy process.

But if you look at what that would imply...

It would also imply that all the other antioxidant nutrients are very important in the thyroid as well, because vitamin C and zinc and copper, manganese, and a whole suite of iron even.

Too much iron is bad for you, but you need iron to protect yourself from oxidative stress.

So all of these things are helping prevent tissue damage in the thyroid gland, which helps prevent the immune system from going haywire trying to deal with that damage.

And so all of those things are important for thyroid hormone.

Yeah, natokinase is an enzyme that helps break down blood clots.

And atherosclerosis is what it really is, is the immune system quarantining damaged particles.

Those particles are damaged because you loaded them with seed oils and then your mitochondrial function declined and you lost your defense against the damage.

And then you got progressively more seed oil damage and the immune system is trying to protect the blood vessel from it.

That's what the plaque is.

But that plaque is highly inflammatory.
